1. Experiments with Visual Odometry for Hydrobatic Autonomous Underwater Vehicles
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Hydrobatic Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are underactuated robots that can perform agile maneuvers in challenging underwater environments with high efficiency in speed and range. The challenge lies in localizing and navigating these AUVs particularly for performing manipulation tasks because common sensors such as GPS become very unreliable underwater due to their poor accuracy.

4. Design of an Autonomous underwater drone for achieving efficiency in the operation of the sensor package during monitoring of water bodies
University essay from Blekinge Tekniska HögskolaAbstract : Background: the process of water quality monitoring is a critical quality assurance process. However, conventional methods include monitoring by a team of divers going to different depths to collect water samples. This method is expensive, time-consuming, and can lead to adverse consequences like a fatality. READ MORE

5. USING N-MODULAR REDUNDANCYWITH KALMAN FILTERS FORUNDERWATER VEHICLE POSITIONESTIMATION
University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknikAbstract : Underwater navigation faces many problems with accurately estimating the absolute positionof an underwater vehicle. Neither Global Positioning system (GPS) nor Long Baseline (LBL) orShort Baseline (SBL) are possible to use for a military vehicle acting under stealth, since thesetechniques require the vehicle to be in the vicinity of a nearby ship or to surface and raise its antenna.
